Will any of this get him to understand?

Sadly, I don't think any of this will. Jane Coaston, who's writing I've linked to her before, is a great reporter who covered the antisemitism beat for a while. She had a couple great threads today, here is one of them which gets into why this kind of antisemitism is so tough to deal with

Eta: clicking through to her earlier threads is well worthwhile.

Is she talking about from a black perspective?

She is black, if that is your question. She's a student of antisemitism, conspiracy theories, white Supremacy, and such.

Was asking about: specific type of anti-Semitism that makes being anti-Semitic look "pro-black."

deeply disturbing to me how quickly "Free Kyrie" and "American Jews" are trending on Twitter. there is so much hate just under the surface.

Now what?

While doing research on YHWH, I posted a Documentary that contained some false anti-Semitic statements, narratives, and language that were untrue and offensive to the Jewish Race/Religion, and I take full accountability and responsibly for my actions. I am grateful to have a big platform to share knowledge and I want to move forward by having an open dialogue to learn more and grow from this.

To All Jewish families and Communities that are hurt and affected from my post, I am deeply sorry to have caused you pain, and I apologize. I initially reacted out of emotion to being unjustly labeled Anti-Semitic, instead of focusing on the healing process of my Jewish Brothers and Sisters that were hurt from the hateful remarks made in the Documentary. I want to clarify any confusion on where I stand fighting against Anti- semticism by apologizing for posting the documentary without context and a factual explanation outlining the specific beliefs in the Documentary I agreed with and disagreed with. I had no intentions to disrespect any Jewish cultural history regarding the Holocaust or perpetuate any hate. I am learning from this unfortunate event and hope we can find understanding between us all. I am no different than any other human being. I am a seeker of truth and knowledge, and I know who I Am.

Now what?

Now nothing. He sits for his 5 games, comes back, and nothing changes. The internet got a few days of hyper-exposed anti-Semitism in every comment section and all social media platforms. Kyrie is still going to believe in whatever NOI/BH crap he believed in until now.  People who shared his beliefs have another excuse to dig in further. People who thought he was an anti-Semite aren't buying the apology and still think he's an anti-Semite. It'll come up from time to time when his name is mentioned, and that's that.

They don't need it. It's just symbolic bs to convince a player to get out in front of an issue by donating before he gets fined and/or suspended.

to be clear, this isn't an apology. this is like when you're full of it friend says, "if what i said got you upset, I'm sorry you're upset."

This is my favorite part! Furreal? You didn't specify which "specific beliefs" you believe in out of the documentary that says the Holocaust is a hoax and makes up Hitler quotes about blacks being the real Jews and are actually cool? Yeah. That's the issue. If we would have known that you were only sharing it for the thing the guy says in minute 32 we would never have been upset!

Some real gold in here. Just noticed the line "...a belief system with tethers far beyond facts."
